Any major media source? "Sen. Claire McCaskill (D) spent $2 million on ads in the GOP primary and got what she wanted: conservative Rep. Todd Akin as her opponent. Now that he's damaged goods, so much the better."

Yes, the Dems and Claire ran anti-Akin ads (and anti-Brunner and anti-Steelman ads). That's completely different from claiming they ran ads FOR Akin or gave money to his campaign, which is what has been implied or outright stated by some here on FR.

Oh, but maybe they just used the wrong words. . .kind of like saying "legitimate rape".
